I was wondering what has happened to the herring stock in the Celtic Sea. It is not that long ago that the Marine Institute was satisfied that the stocks were sustainable. I think that was only six or seven years ago. Has it been overfished? It is in big demand in some parts of northern Europe. My other question is about the impact on employment of the potential changes indicated in the analysis the Minister presents. How are we going to handle that? It is very challenging when we look at the potential job losses and impact on the industry.
